A second trailer for Shane Acker’s 9 has scurried online and it is a lot like the first one, however that is not a bad thing as the first trailer was great. This new trailer gives us a bit more information as to why little sacks with number on them are running around, and we get to see a bunch of new footage. It’s quite refreshing to see an animated film that is a bit darker and isn’t aimed at children. It’s aimed that the big children instead.

9 will be released in September and features the vocal cords of Elijah Wood, Christopher Plummer, Martin Landau, John C. Reilly, Crispin Glover and Jennifer Connelly.

Cool 9 clip

We haven’t heard or received anything 9 related since we got the trailer back in December. The trailer (click here to watch) was one of the best trailers i’d seen in a long while, and I’ve lost count how many times I’ve watched it (however for the sake of hilarity I’ll say 9). Now we have a clip to cast our eyes on! In the clip 9 (Elijah Wood) and 7 (Jennifer Connelly) try to fight off a monster, but 7 is taken hostage (where the hell is 3.5 when you need him!?) Watch below!

9 takes place in a world parallel to our own, in which the very legacy of humanity is threatened. A group of sapient rag dolls, living a post-apocalyptic existence find one of their own, 9 (Elijah Wood), who displays leadership qualities that may help them to survive.
The conflicted, but resilient group includes 1 (Christopher Plummer), a domineering war veteran; 2 (Martin Landau), an aged inventor; 5 (John C. Reilly), a stalwart mechanic; 6 (Crispin Glover), a visionary and artist; and 7 (Jennifer Connelly), a brave warrior.

Back in 2006 a short film called 9 earned itself an Oscar nomination for being so good. Now, 3 years on, the short has been made into a feature film that is being produced by Tim Burton and Wanted director Timur Bekmambetov.

Paul Bettany And Jennifer Connelly Join Darwin Film

Real life couple Paul Bettany and Jennifer Connelly have joined Creation, a Jon Amiel project about the life of Charles Darwin. Bettany will play the father of evolutionary theory, and Connelly will play his wife (and cousin) Emma Wedgwood.

From THR:

“John Collee’s compelling script tells the remarkable story behind Darwin’s revolutionary theory and the foundation of a book that changed the world,” said Oscar-winning producer Jeremy Thomas, the force behind the project. “We think of Darwin as an old man with a gray beard. The reality of our story is very different.”

The film will focus on Darwin’s struggles between his deeply religious wife and his own growing belief in a world where God has no place. Two of Darwin’s children died before they reached their teenage years, which drove him to question religion and he eventually proposed that all species of life have evolved over time through the process of natural selection.

Evolution is a hot topic in society today, so I wouldn’t be surprised if this film causes a stir of the The Da Vinci Code kind. Filming starts at the end of September on location in England.

Some new images from The Day the Earth Stood Still have appeared online over at ComingSoon.net. The film stars Keanu Reeves, Jennifer Connelly and John Cleese and is a remake of the 1951 classic sci-fi film about an alien visitor and his giant robot counterpart who visit Earth.

The Day the Earth Stood Still Trailer

The trailer for The Day the Earth Stood Still is now online. It is a remake of the 1950’s movie of the same title and stars Keanu Reeves and Jennifer Connelly.

Looks quite interesting. Keanu Reeves is born for the part, they needed an actor who shows no emotion and he fits that bill perfectly. They should rename the movie to The Day Keanu Reeves Face Stayed Still. Much better title.

Update: Trailer seems to be have removed from the face of the internet. I don’t think Fox want to promote their movies.

Update 2: It’s back!
